Loctite makes a product called "naval jelly" you can google it, pretty decent stuff.

Alright, need help, need it quick. I somehow managed to snap my high pressure fuel line in half, and CANNOT find a replacement for sale. If you look in the right wheel well, you'll see the brake line splitters, right behind it is the metal fuel line that comes up from the frame rail, there is a...

there are treatment products that you can apply to the rust that will either neutralize it, or seal it. Buy one quick, and get that rust handled before it eats your truck alive. As far as the AT question, I'd seriously get a transmission shop to answer that, I've personally never heard of such...

yes the 225/75/R15's are stock, but everyone I've ever know have ripped those off for a 235/75/R15. the 225's are pizza cutters, and make the truck very wobbly (think stilts!). you can put those size on with zero modifications (as well as 31x10.50/15's). the stock "flotation" size is 29x9.50/15...

well, the good thing with doing it yourself (as opposed to buying a premade kit), is that you can route it however you'd like. I personally haven't done this mod (YET!), and have seen various pictures of completed projects, I don't see how the dipsticks would be adversely affected, and the...

Alrighty, I'm pretty knowlegable when it comes to my T4R, but I can't remember this one to save my life and my FSM's don't have the info. Is there an "adjustment" to the release cylinder rod? I'm replacing it in a few hours, and I'd really like it if I could tighten this thing up to where there...

that was your clutch burning. Think of a dragster smoking it's tires, that's what you were doing, except to your clutch. As long as it wasn't done for too long, you should be fine. I've done this a few times in my old '89, and there was no discernable damage done. As for scaling vertical...

well, going new is always a good decision. Jasper engines are pretty good, and are warrantied. JASPER Engines & Transmissions: Remanufactured engine: diesel, marine, import to find prices and dealers. A local salvage yard should have a complete motor, but as with all used items, you're buying...

Alright, haven't posted in a while, been busy with work. I've managed to get the A/C blowing ice-cold, but the belt occasionally makes a chirping noise (litterally, a chirp, chirp like a bird noise) when I turn it on, other times it's quiet. I've noticed the belt seems a tad loose, but nothing...

meh, lotta changes between 2nd and 3rd gen T4R's. Best bet is to measure the mounting points, and see if it'd mate up.

Toyota 4Runner and Pickup: Cheap Tricks

That sound was probably the water pump. Especially if there are metal flakes present. The water pump is the only actual moving part of a coolant system (other than the thermostat, heh). I'd go ahead and have it replaced, especially if it's under warranty. When all else fails, trial and error...

Change your oil, if there is coolant in it, your head gasket(s) are probably blown. Gunk in the radiator? The first part of your post sounds like there is some backstory to it.

The 4.3 is a beast motor, that's why GM put a turbo on it (The Regal Grand National). It's a VERY popular motor, with cheap upgrades to wring more HP out of it.
